How To Cut A Big T Shirt Into A Tank Top?
You can easily make a stylish tank top from a T-shirt without the need for sewing.
To make this, you need an oversized T-shirt (preferably not see-through), scissors, a ribbon, pins, and fabric glue.
- Start by cutting off both sides’ sleeves, from about an inch below your armpit to up to your neck.
- Then cut the collar for creating a more comfortable neckline (you can either cut on the original seam line or go lower if you want).
- Cut the back of the T-shirt, as shown in the picture.
- After that, pinch and hold the two sides at the armpit to wrap using the ribbon.
After the material is banded and the edges are pinned and glued, tie a knot with the ribbon. Voila! You have a tank top ready to flaunt.
Sleeveless Low Arm Cut Vest:
The process of cutting this T-shirt is the same as the last technique. Here you have to use a longer T-Shirt so it is best to use a men’s T-Shirt of XL size or a size that will suit your figure.
For making this vest, you will also need to cut the sleeves longer than the last one for more skin exposure. This vest will be perfect for people who are into sports or dance or for those who are searching for a better gym wardrobe.
Side Knot Sleeveless Tank Top:

Cut the entire sleeves off (both sides) and extend the cut from the armpit region to the end of the T-Shirt (vertically). The T-Shirt will look as if the sides are torn, hence tie the ends of the cut T-Shirt as shown in the picture, and you will have a great side knot sleeveless T-shirt to go perfectly with for your sports bras.
Front Knot Sleeveless Top:
